You know it is illegal to remove the converter. If someone were to crawl under there and find out you sawed it off with a sawzall and then replaced it with a piece of straight pipe and a couple of clamps, you could get in big trouble. And if you did violate this federal law, you would be eliminating an emmision control device that doesnt do anything whatsoever except increase back pressure which makes your engine work harder to produce the same amount of power therfore burning more fuel which increases exhaust produced therefor lowering your MPG and increasing EGT's which shortens engine life.
